Hi.
I have a USB powered which is disabling data on certain USB data cables that i recently got , some cheap ones from local store. As soon as i unplug the power cord of the HUB and replug the USB to my PC data is now available. For the record, monitor, laptop and USB power bus, are not connected to earth and they are plugged in the same strip adapter. If i plugged old / good data cables it is fine. are there any shorts on these cables ? I can return one of them at least if thats the case.
